About

Are you taking AP Calculus AB this coming school year? This series will act as a way for you to learn the key concepts, ideas, and theorems before school begins and I will cover Units 1 (Limits and Continuity) all the way to Unit 8 (Applications of Integration), with only AB topics in mind.

Schedule

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Attendance is optional and you are free to attend/skip whichever sessions you'd like! However, keep in mind that since calculus is a field where topics build on top of one another, it would only benefit you to join as many as you can!

Fri 8:00 PM - 9:30 PM UTCJul 14, 8:00 PM - 9:30 PM UTC

In this session, we will go over unit 6, which is the introduction to integration (formally "Integration and Accumulation of Change"). In it, we will discuss the definition of an integral along with concepts like Riemann Sums, the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, definite integrals, and interpreting them as well! In this session, we will not cover any AP Calculus BC topics.
